As human beings we all experience the same emotions.
Pain and hearthache are no exception.
I am comforted knowing that salvation is real and everything is redeemable through God.
This song resonates with my life right now.
A Gift for Melody Anne
by the Avett Brothers
I want to get back
I want to get square
I want to get back all the hopes
and dreams that I have
that the good Lord above us can spare
Like that actor said
I don’t wanna lose heart
I don’t wanna get beat beat down
By the big big world
Or quit before I even start
Lord, I just want me life to be true
Yeah, and I just want me heart to be true
Yeah, and I just want my words to be true
I want my soul to feel brand new
I wanna hold hands
Yeah, and I wanna make love
And I wanna keep running all day
And all night even when my mind tells my body that’s enough
And I wanna stand up
Yeah, and I wanna stand tall
If I ever have a son, if I ever have a daughter
I don’t wanna tell ‘em that I didn’t give my all
And, I just want me life to be true
Yeah, and I just want me heart to be true
Yeah, and I just want my words to be true
I want my soul to feel brand brand new
Like a fresh coat of paint
We can make it anything but blue
Anything but blue
Now when your dreams start saying, I can’t come true
You’d be better off without me
Don’t let ‘em go
Don’t let ‘em go
I don’t wanna go broke
Not from one bad deal
I don’t wanna be up all night
Crying in my hands
For a girl that isn’t even real
Lord, I just want me life to be true
Yeah, and I just want me heart to be true
And, I just want my words to be true
Yeah, and I just want my song to be true
Yeah, and I just want my heart to be true
Yeah, and I just want my life to be true
Yeah, and I just want my words to be true
And, I just want my heart to be true
Yeah, and I just want my life to be true
And, I just want my song to be true
And, I just want my life to be true
I want my soul to feel brand new
I want my soul to feel brand new

Beautiful - I count it all as loss for the sake of Christ; there's instant joy in knowing that, no matter what is going on.
Thanks for the words man!
